Objectives:Objectives:Discuss factors that affect the
assessment of chronic pain.Describe components of the
comprehensive assessment of chronic pain.
Identify valid and reliable pain assessment tools appropriate for primary care.
Goal: provide NPs with a concise overview of standardized pain assessment methods.
Factors that affect Pain Factors that affect Pain AssessmentAssessmentPersonal meaning of pain
◦Quality of life◦Financial burden◦Social isolation
Cultural aspects◦Race/ethnicity◦Language
CognitionExtraneous factors
Comprehensive Comprehensive AssessmentAssessment
History◦Present Illness (OLDCARTS)
Onset Location Duration Characteristics Aggravating and Alleviating factors Radiate Timing Severity/Intensity
◦Past medical (co-morbidities)◦ Any past issues with pain management
Comprehensive Comprehensive AssessmentAssessment
Physical Examination◦Vital Signs◦General survey◦Neurological exam◦Musculoskeletal exam◦Pain evaluation & descriptors
Nociceptive Sharp & stabbing; Dull, aching & throbbing
Neuropathic Burning, electric & tingling
Comprehensive Comprehensive AssessmentAssessment
Psychosocial factors◦Impact on lifestyle
Family dynamics Social isolation Sleep Work productivity

Comprehensive Comprehensive AssessmentAssessmentMedication review
◦ Current medicines◦ Past medicines for pain control and effect
Behavioral measures◦ Checklist of Nonverbal Pain Indicators(CNPI)
Vocal complaints: nonverbal (sighs, gasps, groans, moans, cries)
Facial grimaces (furrowed brow, clenched teeth, tightened lips, distorted expressions, narrowed eyes)
Bracing (clutching or holding onto something or affected area during movement)
Restlessness (constant or intermittent shifting, rocking, hand motions, inability to sit still)
Rubbing (massaging of affected area) Vocal complaints (words expressing pain or
discomfort, cursing during movement, exclamations of protest) Feldt, K.S. (2000). The checklist
of nonverbal pain indicators (CNPI). Pain Management Nursing.3(1): 13-21.
Comprehensive Comprehensive AssessmentAssessment
Diagnostic Studies◦Individualized to the patient and history◦Low back pain national guidelines
“Diagnostic imaging is indicated for patients with low back pain only if they have severe progressive neurologic impairments or signs or symptoms indicating a serious or specific underlying condition, or if they are candidates for invasive interventions. Routine imaging is not associated with clinically meaningful benefits in other patients and can lead to harms.”

Screen for AddictionScreen for Addiction Screening Instrument for Substance Abuse Potential
(SISAP)®
◦ a 5-item, clinician-administered test that asks pointed questions concerning alcohol, marijuana, and cigarette abuse
Screener and Opioid Assessment for Patients in Pain (SOAPP)®
◦ a self-report questionnaire available in 5-, 14-, and 24-item versions, which has recently undergone revisions and which is considered less susceptible to patient deception
Opioid Risk Tool (ORT) ®
◦ a 5-item, yes-or-no, self-report for measuring and predicting the probability that a patient taking opioids will display aberrant behaviors
Current Opioid Misuse Measure (COMM)®
◦ a 40-item patient directed questionnaire that assesses how patient is currently using their medications
ImplicationsImplicationsAssessment is the basis for
appropriate management.Assessment is a multifactorial process.The patient is part of the team in
managing chronic pain.As a health care provider, it is
pertinent to trust your patients and verify the information.
Finally document, document, document!
